Scheme taught me that OOP is the poor man's closure. func Backup(saver func(data []byte) error, data []byte) error { return saver(data) }

Great stuff. I will be using this if/when I go back to zigging :)

I really liked Ceylon. It was competing against Groovy, Kotlin, and Scala which all seemed to come out around the same time.

Or Scheme.

I was curious as well and looks like this abstracts over libxev: https://github.com/lalinsky/zio/blob/main/build.zig#L7

Architecture is also different. Thread-per-core (no garbage collector) vs work-stealing with garbage collection cycles.
